Two long, straight wires both carry current to the right, are parallel, and are 25 cm apart. Wire one carries a current of 2.0 A

and wire two carries a current of 5.0 A. How far from wire 1 is the net magnetic field equal to 0?

Answer:

x = 7.14 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current in wire 1, I_1=2\ A

Current in wire 2, I_2=5\ A  

Distance between parallel wires, r = 25 cm

Let at P point the net magnetic field equal to 0. The magnetic field at a point midway between the is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}

Let the distance is x from wire 1. So,

\dfrac{I_1}{r}=\dfrac{I_2}{(0.25-r)}

\dfrac{2}{r}=\dfrac{5}{(25-r)}

x=\dfrac{50}{7}\ m

x = 7.14 meters

So, the magnetic field will be 0 at a distance of 7.14 meters from wire 1. Hence, this is the required solution.

If ice has a density of.92g/cm, what is the volume of 1.8 kilograms of ice?
steposvetlana [31]
Given:
Density = .92 g / cm³
Volume = 1.8 kg
            = (1.8 * 1000) grams
            = 1800 grams
Now,
Density (d) = \frac{Mass (m)}{volume(v)}

volume (v)= \frac{mass(m)}{density(d)}

volume (v)= \frac{1800}{.92}

volume (v)= 1956.521739

volume (v)= 1956.5~ cm^{3}

So, the volume of 1.8 kg of ice is 1956.5 cm³

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.
